Hej @klokie, thanks for reporting. While Arc is not officially supported, I personally use Arc so I occasionally test on it.

Regarding the issue you described, I cannot reproduce it by following the steps you shared. I can confirm that tab exporting features in popup menu are working properly.

I am on the same version and macOS with you.

Please help me confirm the following things:

1. Which version of Copy as Markdown have you installed? This can be found on the Extensions page.
2. What permissions have you already given? This can be found on the Options page of Copy as markdown, accessible via Popup Menu / Options . However, to use "Copy Current Tab", no additional permission is required.
3. In some cases, existing tabs may not be able to use an extension that has just been installed. Try close and reopen the tab.
4. Try restarting Arc browser, though I believe you have tried.

Please let me know if these helps.

Thanks!

Hi @klokie

Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce the issue you mentioned, on two different Macs running Arc. I also tried creating a Space with a separate Profile, or using incognito mode, none of them reproduce the issue.

I am not sure what is the configuration of your Mac that may stop Copy as Markdown from working. If possible, could you try running Arc on another Mac and see if the issue exists?

Thanks.
